Music!
The Frankenstein Meme sounds all awesome and junk. So therefore,
With one exception, these are all songs I have on my computer at the moment. Because there was no way I was going through my 12 discs of mp3s AND hundreds of CDs. ;P
1 A song that wakes you up in the morning.
Simon and Garfunkel - Cecilia
Hee. This song is just so peppy! And fun! And who knows why the heck you would DO what he says in the quoted lyrics, but I don't care!
Making love in the afternoon with Cecilia/up in my bedroom/I got up to wash my face/when I come back to bed/someone's taken my place
2 A song you loved in high school.
Hanson - MMMBop
:D I still love this song, so shut it. I liked it the first time I heard it, and by the time I saw the video while waiting in line for The Beast at King's Island, I had become the scariest of creatures: The Teenybopper.
So hold on the ones who really care/in the end they'll be the only ones there
3 A song that mentions a dead celebrity.
Jesus Jesus Bobeezus
..Jesus counts.
sickle cell anemia and the crust from birthday pizza/was cookin' up on the ford dashboard/next to the statue of my lord dear jesus
4 A song you'd be embarrassed to listen to with your grandmother.
The Streets - Don't Mug Yourself
::giggle:: Not the most scandalous of lyrics, but I can just see the look on her face if I played this in front of her.
And I'm like, honestly it's not like that, your acting like I'm prancing like a sap/Jumping when she claps and that, oi/Do you really think I act wack cos I'm tellin' ya serving the aces and it's game set and match
5 A song that MTV will never play in a million, billion years.
Anastasia ST - Once Upon a December
So I cheated. ;P I'm sure I have maaany songs MTV would never play because MTV sucks, but. I started second-guessing myself. However, I feel safe in assuming they would not play a song from an animated family movie. Not the version IN the movie, anyway.
Dancing bears/painted wings/things I almost remember
6 A song with a title that ends in y.
Ben Lee - Apple Candy
Okay, I did not realise I had so many songs ended with a y. I narrowed it down to four, aren't you proud? Then three because I already had a Simon and Garfunkel song. I went with this because I am shallow: Suggestion of boykissing? Win.
I wanna know what he knows/I wanna feel what he felt/I wanna touch what he touched/I wanna go where he's been/I want you and I want him
7 A song that makes you crave something.
Michael Buble - Save The Last Dance For Me
This was the hardest song to choose. Why? Because of all the songs I know that make me crave a holiday or a season or an emotion or a food or a drink, I HAVE NONE ON MY COMPUTER. Not. One. This was one of two that came close. This just FEELS summery to me. Makes me want to dance in flowy clothing. ;P
Don't forget who's taking you home/and in whose arms you're gonna be
8 A cover song that you think is better than the original.
Jonathan Coulton - Baby Got Back
9 The original of #8.
Sir Mix-a-lot - Baby Got Back
I can't believe it took me so LONG to think of this! I have a handful of covers I like better than the original, but none is like this. Second place would Bowling For Soup's cover of Baby, One More Time. THIS song, which I got from the lovely Katie, surpasses any cover, like, EVER. I sent it to my cousin Ben who likes the original and he played it for pretty much everyone at his school and so now everyone worships him and me and Katie.
My anaconda don't want none/unless you've got buns, hon
10 A song that reminds you of a fandom OTP.
Charlie Haden - Spiritual
Jack/Ennis? THE OTP. Yeah, I have many songs that make me think of other OTPs, including my OTP to end all OTPs, Willow/Oz. But not on the computer. Heh. See how I semi-cheat?
11 You have been caught mouthing the lyrics to this song.
Bonnie Tyler - Total Eclipse of the Heart
Heh. I mouth/sing to all my songs, yo. This is like, the only one on my computer right now that I've actually heard.. outside of my room (at Curves, oo!) and therefore caught.
Once upon a time I was falling in love/now I'm only apart
12 A song that will always make you think of a movie.
Broder Daniel - Whirlwind
I have FINALLY seen Fucking Åmål, and fell in love with this song. Yay.
I dream a dream that can't come true/I can never be with her
13 A song that should totally have fic written about it.
Metric - The Twist
Ugh, this took forever. I'm still not peeeerfectly happy with this. But it'd be interesting. I think. :P
We were too wasted to close the window/friends and family looking into my only hiding place/the rythmn of a stranger's skin
14 A song you wish they'd play in elevators.
Gay Pimp - Soccer Practice
... ::cackle:: I'm sorry, but wouldn't it be great?? Side note, I could also have used this for numbers 4, 5, 7, and 13. ;P
I was there because my buddy's down/there is nothing wrong with helping a buddy out
15 You'll stop listening to this song when they pry your MP3 player out of your cold, dead hands.
Regina Spektor - Us
I need her CDs. I really do. Is that enough reason to choose this?
They'll name a city after us/and later say it's all our fault
